In the Lord's Prayer, What Does Jesus Mean by "Your Will Be Done on Earth as It Is in Heaven?"

I think, most simply, the will of God is spoken of in Scripture in two basic ways. There's his will of purpose and his will of precept. His will of purpose is those things that God has predestined to happen - the things that are going to happen. His will of precept are those things that he commands for us - his will.
